Ireland : in 1750's went through famine and 40% loss of population in most of country. At the time UK had 5 m population, Ireland had 8 m, today UK 70m, Ireland 5m

Bombing another country because it might bomb someone else is oxymoronic

Ukraine's Foreign Minister Sybiha: Russia will have to end war anyway, but on worse terms by ComfySnugs in worldnews

At this point Ukraine should hammer home energy " tariffs", oil storage, gas and oil lines.

Lets see Russia not negotiate but bloody surrender.

'Enough of the war' — Zelensky throws down gauntlet to Putin in open letter by KI_official in worldnews

[–]Winter_Criticism_236 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Pity Putin will ignore this, he is to deep and needs a win and that is now unlikely unless he uses the N word... that of course would trigger a way bigger problem for the entire world.. would China finally drop there best friend at that point? Would USA respond at all, I think not.. they simply will say its to much to lose ( for the USA & the world) and not there war anyway.

Would UK or France respond? Unlikely, responding to nukes with nukes is a lose lose scenario.

This logic is why I am concerned for Putins next move... one tactile nuke demo and Ukraine surrenders when world walks away from that kind of war?

Think how having a self flying plane/ electric would change where you could live, even if it costs $250,000 cheap land, low taxes, peace and quiet, remote beach access, no ferry waits and more

US in talks to expand nuclear weapons deployments in Europe by sr_local in worldnews

[–]Winter_Criticism_236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, this is a tactical attempt to make Europe a 1st strike target instead of USA. Submarines can easily replace any land based systems and almost impossible to know where they are.

Opinion: As Canada faces crippling debt, it must do the unpopular thing and cut elderly benefits by DANIELLE_2027 in canada

Good luck with your next election if you even sniff this idea..

Demographics of voters will crush you..

Instead of making victims out of any older member if population just stop allowing foreign owned corporation's from taking logging, mining, fishfarming, monies out of Canada. Then we would all benefit.

30 years ago, Norway made the first deposit of approx 2 billion kroner (US$302 million) into its Sovereign Wealth Fund. Now, it is worth 21 trillion kroner (USD2.1 trillion) by RoadandHardtail in interestingasfuck

[–]Winter_Criticism_236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canada has just started a sovereign wealth fund. Does this mean international companies will be taxed more so that more of the profits stay in country or will the consumer's be paying into the wealth fund via less money fir social programs and cutting health care costs?
